Thanks.

1. WE haven't talked about it officially but I'm going to have to assume yes. I'm not sure how much at the moment but my best guess is that it would be about $50 more to do it later.
2. Yes it does but it is not a fixed level output, you would need to get a good level by using the volume control. It is intended to be used as a speaker output for your desktop speakers.

That is actually a pretty conservative estimate. With the DAC running, it's more like 25 hours of playtime. Without it, probably closer to 30.

1) Is the estimated availability still Sept/Oct?
2) I see that the battery is 7.4VDC. Will the AC adapter provide more than that when plugged in?
3) Tyll stated that the DAC is comparable to the Micro DAC and the amp is comparable to the current Desktop module. Is this still about right?

1. Yes
2. No, the amp will always run off of the batteries.
3. I'd say that's pretty close.
